Chevrolet Logo Discussion (Manchester United Kits 2015/16)

Not a v-neck man. Gimme a nice adidas crew neck like the chelsea shirt this year.
I kind of hope hebegebe is right because I don't really like that black kit but I'm also disappointed that we won't have a black kit.
Well a poster in the other kit thread said there would be a black third kit and that he trusted his source.
hmmm, interesting. Did he have a source?
That third kit looks like something the dippers would wear, hope that's a blag, fecking disgusting. Keeper kit is shite but who the feck cares, there's only one of them on the pitch and i never buy keeper kits anyway. Home kit is wank worthy.
I had bought kits consistently. I didn't get the one in the 2013/14 season with Moyes but I regret the decision as the home and away ones were class. Didn't but one kit this season mainly due to the Chevrolet logo. It ruins it.Do you usually buy shirts though?
I'm as pumped to see the new kit each year as anyone, then when its displayed, it's .... meh, will pass... this year...
But in reality I dont think I've even bothered to buy a United shirt since 1999 anyway.
Looking at it again, the new shirt above is essentially just this Nike shirt but with an appalling logo on the front and a bit of black trim on the sleeves and neck...
I saw a photographer the club use did a photo shoot with the kits and he said we have a black kit, and it was "1 of the best in recent years". It was a Twitter post can't remember when though.
Eh?Looking at it again, the new shirt above is essentially just this Nike shirt but with an appalling logo on the front and a bit of black trim on the sleeves and neck...
So a different neck, different sleeves, different badge design, different trim on the sides and shoulders and no MUFC logo at the bottom.Looking at it again, the new shirt above is essentially just this Nike shirt but with an appalling logo on the front and a bit of black trim on the sleeves and neck...
Other than that it's identical.
Loving the home kit. This is a dream come true for me .
Both red though
The badge patch is the only considerable difference I left out of my post, and I did so because they're both 'sew on', I don't really view them as 'part of the design' of the shirt, if you understand what I'm saying.
The other differences you've alluded to in your post I'd already mentioned - the neck and sleeves have a bit of black trim added to the white. Oh and the neck has a little 'fold over' as on the SHARP kit I posted earlier in the thread, but they're both V-neck, as opposed to actual different neck-lines like crew, collared etc if you understand that.
The shape of the two shirts is very similar.
Overall, this new shirt is a mixture of the two shirts I've posted previously in this thread -
This...
And this...
With an added awful, coloured logo.
Both shirts above are nicer than the new Adidas one, in my opinion at least.
Call it a hunch, but I personally don't think that's our home kit, and I shall explain my theory.
TL;DR - We're either getting an old template for our new home shirt, or that isn't our new home shirt.
Every season, kit suppliers release a whole new batch of templates which close to 99% of professional clubs use (http://www.footyheadlines.com/2014/01/nike-14-15-teamwear-kits-nike-2014-2015.html as an example). This year, Adidas have released several templates - mainly consisting of the trim with holes, the shirts which look like pyjama tops, and the shirts with bands around the sleeves/bottom of the shirt (see the new MLS kits).
The photo of the home shirt above faintly shows a stripe on the side of the body, which was used on this season's Adidas kits (as seen here on this season's Bayern away kit: http://www.fcbayern.de/media/images/homepage/sonstiges-14-15/Away-Trikot_14-15_EN.variant524x295.jpg). Now I know a fair amount of Adidas clubs are carrying over away/third kits this season, but the above photo would essentially mean United are getting an "old" template for their first (well, first in a while) Adidas kit.
I've seen cases of kits which don't follow the new templates (Chelsea 15-16 home [without trim holes or pyjama sleeves]: http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-x7l31xzOC...AAiHI/lg7FfLoEIfI/s1600/Chelsea-15-16-Kit.jpg), but even clubs like Real Madrid, Bayern, etc., are all getting one of the main 15-16 Adidas templates.

The 'leaked'/fake home shirt seems to be the same template as the new Valencia shirt:
That's pretty nice too.
Mario Kempes, what an iconic shirt. Great goalscorer. Wish we'd seen him in a United shirt though.The 'leaked'/fake home shirt seems to be the same template as the new Valencia shirt:

Pretty nice? Thats awful. Looks like Mel Gibson's face in Braveheart.
Looks very Spanish and is a bit different, well designed, modern. I think it looks good.
Wouldn't look right on an English team though.

1st of August is a good date.
I'm hoping it's not the kit that's been pictured in here.
Does our contract with Nike end on the 31st of July or something? Why so late?
Not even the same red, though!Both red though
Exactly this, and Nike won't agree to cutting it short to the end of season.
Why would they, wringing every last drop of marketing potential out of it.
The academy players collect their new kit 1st August, got to turn up in their own clothes, no Nike allowed from that day onwards.
August 1st? So we wear the same Nike kits for preseason?
Think so.
Yep.
The black one's fake? Shame, looks fecking great.
Those kits in the OP all look good to me, if a bit daft on those skinny mannequins. Not sure why they went with orange instead of red on the black kit but I actually think it looks decent nonetheless. Third kits should be a bit more adventurous.
I'm watching the 92/93 season review, we should bring back the Newton Heath colours again
As long as there is no orange.
Some of the Adidas kits I've seen so far are absolutely beautiful, some of the best I've ever seen.
I mean look at this AC Milan kit:
Brilliant.
I'll be happy with a nice tone of red and a crew neck. If we get a bloody tomato coloured kit with a V neck (like the picture floating around at the moment) I'll be slightly disappointed, especially considering that I know Adidas can produce beauties like Milan's and Bayern's new kits.

Isn't this the Man Utd kit thread?

Agree completely. That Milan kit is beautiful, so sleek and understated.Some of the Adidas kits I've seen so far are absolutely beautiful, some of the best I've ever seen.

Imagine that shape but a classy, rich red (80s Sharp kit) with the black panel over the shoulders but with white '3 stripes'.
And a massive Gold cross slap bang in the middle
Arrgggh. I honestly forgot about it when I was picturing that shirt!And a massive Gold cross slap bang in the middle
I doubt they will long as the anti-Glazer crowd run with it.I'm watching the 92/93 season review, we should bring back the Newton Heath colours again
